violent storm was coming ,but it sounded like his small town wouldnt be hit too hard. but eppes, a firefighter, had clearly known the power of these huge storms from experiences. do you know where the flashlights (手电) are? he asked his wife. danielle. just then, thunder was all-around them. the moment he turned the flashlight on. the house lights went off. a second later, the kitchen windows were broken. eppes and danielle ran to their boys who were still sleeping in their bedroom.get up, get up, r.j.! eppes shouted, waving his flashlight. the sleepy boy moved to the edge of the bed. eppes held out his arms and ordered his son to jump. he was too late. the roof was torn down. r.j. was buried ,under the pieces.ive lost him, eppes thought. quickly, he hurried to joel to shield him. glass, wood, and plaster (灰泥 ) hit them. then something huge, heavy-maybe the washing machine-knocked into him. he hurt his arms, but he still held the flashlight in one hand. after a long period, the wind began to die down. eppes found himself standing in the ruins of his home. darkness lay all about him. then he thought he saw a shape moving straight toward him. it was r.j., guided home by the light of his fathers flashlight. at the hospital later, r.j. described what had happened to him. i rushed out when the wall started moving i was scared. my mom and dad were gone. pieces of glass hit my back, and something hit my neck really hard. r.j. had been raised up into the air by the wind and dropped back to the ground. amazingly, r.j. was not hurt badly. of all his family, eppes was hurt most seriously.21. the lights in eppes house went off when_.a. eppes turned the flashlight onb. eppes woke up in the morningc. danielle ran to the two boysd. r.j. was ordered to jump by his father22. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. eppes was still sleeping when the storm happened.b. r.j. was buried in the ruins before he could get out of his bed.c. eppes was buried in the ruins when the wind died downd. r.j. found his father with the help of his mother.23. we can learn from the passage thata. the storm hit the town without any warningb. eppes wasnt in the house when the storm camec. eddes had experienced such violent storms befored. r.j. s neck was seriously hurt by the falling roof24. the underlined word in paragraph 3 probably meansa. protect b. wake up c. look for d. stopb amsterdam is a city like venice founded on and around water or waterways. however, unlike venice, hollands largest city isnt only a museum. amsterdam is a real, living and large city. the dutch capital has clearly come a long way since it was founded. a story goes that two fishermen and a seasick dog first came there. the dog jumped ship to pour out the con- tents of his stomach and the two fishermen became the founders of amsterdam. the reality of its founding might have something to do with the river amstel which was built in the 13th century. settlement developed slowly there and it took its name. amsterdam is built on numberless canals, which neatly divide the city into easily navigable(可航行的) districts. there seems to be a canal around every corner in amsterdam. this is not too surprising when you consider that the city is home to 165 canals, which are more than venice. during the summer, people come together in vondel park, where locals and tourists alike relax in the. fine weather. amsterdam might be one of europes wettest capitals, but as soon as the clouds are clear and the sun shines, its citizens go out into the streets to sit in cafes, go boating on a canal, or even ride bicycles; the number of bikes in the city is more than double that of the citys population.amsterdams winters tend to be cold with plenty of rain, but this seldom seems to stop the tourists from gathering together in the city. particularly cold winters also offer a good chance for visitors to watch the local people skating across the frozen canals. these days, with plenty of rail, bus and air connections to all over europe, the dutch capital is a year-round tourist destination as well as one of the worlds key business centers.25. we can conclude from the passage that amsterdam isa. as big as venice b. similar to venice in certain aspectsc. the largest city in europe d. a big inland city26. what can we learn about amsterdam from paragraph 2?a. the city has a short history.b. the two fishermen gave the city the name.c. the city got its name from the river amstel.d. the city was named after the seasick dog.27. in winter the tourists in amsterdam may be advised to _. a. relax in vondel park b. go boating on canals c. drink in cafes d. watch people skating28. which of the following statements is true according to the passage? a. amsterdam and venice have a similar number of canals. b. on average each person in amsterdam has more than two bicycles. c. it seldom rains in amsterdam in winter because it is very cold. d. tourists can go to amsterdam only by ship now.cfor some reason we were reminded that we primates(灵长目) need love. kim bard of the university of portsmouth in england and her colleagues carried out a study on 46 baby chimpanzees orphans(黑猩猩孤儿), which had lost their mothers. the study showed that primate babies that have tight relationships with mother figures do much better on cognitive (认知的 ) tests than babies who only grew up with peers (同伴), but this is not breaking news. in fact, it s old news. in the 1950s, harry harlow did a series of experiments with baby monkeys that showed. that lack of love and comfort makes for a crazy monkey. harlow constructed a cage that included a wire monkey mother with a plastic face. then he equipped the mother with a milk bottle .the cage also had another wire mother who was covered with soft cloth. the baby monkeys spent all their time with the cloth mother arid only went to the wire mother to feed.harlows monkey experiment was important because, at the time, child care experts, and everybodys grandmother had a no touch, no comfort policy toward children. they advised parents not to respond to crying babies. they thought that babies should sleep alone to become independent, and for gods sake put that kid down. but harlows work changed that policy. mothers were soon permitted to have their babies next to them in the hospital. the current chimp research based on harlows work shows that mothers love doesnt just make for a psychologically(糖神上地) healthy child, it also makes for a smart child. the highly raised chimps do better than those that are not loved, and the well-raised chimps do even better than human kids on iq tests. we are primates, social animals which need love. we need to be held and talked to and made to feel that at least one person wants to be with us all the time.29. the study kim bard and his colleagues did a. included 46 baby and mother monkeysb. is nothing new to people about the findingsc. showed that many chimpanzees lack of love when they were youngd. showed many chimpanzees had good relationship with their mothers30. harlow built two mothers for baby,.monkeys to _a. make them live comfortably b. let them have more choicesc. give them more love d make comparison well31. which of the following can we infer from the passage?a. well-raised chimps are better than people in iq.b. sometimes its not wrong to have no touch and no comfort to babies.c. chimps growing up in cages are less smarter than chimps growing up in wild.d. babies who sleep with mothers tend to be cleverer than babies sleep alone.32. what would be the best title for the passage?a. love makes kids smarter b. primates need lovec. no touch, no comfort d. how to develop cognitive abilitiesdword powerauthor(s): kaplan $13.95 youll never be at a loss for
